How to handle sub domains?

Mine does not ;-)

Just being curious: Do you have a link showing how this would look like?

Hi All,

I have a question regarding the following scenario:

I do have a Mercury installation for domain brlv.de. brlv is a non profit organization. Mails to brlv.de are directly send to us (there is no provider in between (mx record)).

Now we have been asked by a sub organization of brlv that they want to use xxx.brlv.de as there mail domain.

Is that possible and if so, how?

At the moment, test@xxx.brlv.de is send to my Mercury installation and since test@xxx.brlv.de is no local user, Mercury tries to send it to test@xxx.brlv.de using the SMTP client (end-to-end) version. It fails with "relay access denied".

If possible at all, I would like to set this up in a way that all mails of xxx.brlv.de are not received by my Mercury installation but directly by the mail server of the sub organization. I don't want to handle their traffic ;-)

Thanks

Konrad

You can have separate mail handlers (MX records) for sub-domains, with the sub-domain either in a separate zone or as a virtual sub-domain within the main zone. Contact registry at your ISP (or whoever is handling your name servers) and ask them to help you set it up.
